During the period of the American revolution and previous controversy, the "Annual register," London, published an admirable and quite impartial narrative of events, understood to have been written by Edmund Burke. "The history of the war in America" is one of a considerable number of histories of the revolution plagiarized from the "Annual register." cf. "Some pseudo-histories of the Amer. revolution," by O.

"Left mainly to her [South Carolina's] own resources, it was through bloodshed and devastation and the depths of wretchedness that her citizens were to bring her back to her place in the republic by their own heroic courage and self-devotion, having suffered more, and dared more, and achieved more than the men of any other state."

Tactical
and/or operational success may set the stage for strategic victorythat is, they may be facilitators,
and they certainly are huge contributors in any casebut they are not necessarily sufficient by
themselves to achieve victory. The prudent strategist, however, knows full well that his brilliant
strategy will be incredibly more difficult and risky without tactical and operational success. There
are few examples like Nathanael Greene's southern campaign in the American Revolution where
one can lose the battles and win the campaign and war.

A paradoxical fact regarding the Scotch-Irish is that they
are very little
Scotch, and much less Irish. That is to say, they do not belong mainly to the so-
called Celtic race, but they are the most composite of all the people of the British
Isles. They are called Scots because they lived in Scotia; and they are called
Irish because they moved to Ireland. Geography and not ethnology has given
them their name.
. . .
More than any other race they served as the amalgam to produce, out of
divergent races, a new race, the American.

[p.78] and as to firing at a man at 200 yards with a common musket, you may just as well fire at the moon and have the same hopes of hitting your object. I do maintain and will prove, whenever called on, that no man was ever killed at 200 yards, by a common soldier's musket, by the person who aimed at him.

[p.78] A soldier's musket, if not exceedingly ill-bored (as many of them are), will strike the figure of a man at eighty yards; it may even at 100; but a soldier must be very unfortunate indeed who shall be wounded by a common musket at 150 yards, provided his antagonist aims at him; and as to firing at a man at 200 yards with a common musket, you may just as well fire at the moon and have the same hopes of hitting your object.

[p.79] I have many times asked the American backwoodsmen what was the most their best marksmen could do; and they have constantly told me that an expert rifleman, provided he can draw good and true sight (they mean by this expression, when they can distinctly see the object aimed at in a direct line with the two sights on the rifle), can hit the head of a man at 200 yards.

Holy Bible, King James Version, with Apocrypha, an exact reprint page for page of the Authorized Version published in the year 1611, 1883, Oxford University PressVolume OneVolume Two

Holy Bible, King James Version, 1637, Printed by the printers to the Universitie of Cambridge. Presumably, this is close to the version of the King James Bible that would have been brought to the American colonies by Protestant emigrants from the United Kingdom. It may be noted that it contained the books referred to by Protestants today as "the Apochrypha".

Holy Bible (Geneva Bible, New Testament). This is the historic Geneva Bible (produced around 1560). This is the New Testament portion. This is one of the first printed religious works to be done without the censorship of the Roman Catholic Church. It is known to have been produced by Theodore Beza (de Beze), with the help of several others. It is part of the chain of transmission of the books of the New Testament, and demonstrates that the cries against censorship are part of the human condition, no matter how well motivated the source of the action might have been.
The Geneva Bible was printed beginning around the 1560s but continued to be produced into the 1600s. A French Edition was also made, and those along with the Bible produced by Diodatti (Diodati) produced standards of scholarship against which most other versions were measured.

Holy Bible (Geneva Study Bible, 1599). THE GENEVA BIBLE was the first complete Bible to be translated into English from the original Hebrew and Greek texts. In part due to the extensive marginal notes, it was the most widely read and influential English Bible of the 16th and 17th centuries, and the Bible of choice for many of the greatest writers, thinkers, and historical figures of the Reformation era. During King James's reign, and into the reign of Charles I, the Geneva Bible was gradually replaced by the King James Bible, Authorized Version of 1611.

Irons, Larry, "Smoothbore
Musketry". This article is included because I recently had a
professional historian tell me that he had concluded based on a volume of
similar studies (I do not recall its title), that 1000 militia men in the Battle
of Cowpens, mostly armed with long rifle flintlocks, firing some 1200 rounds at
700 British provincials and regulars, from within 50 yards could only have been
expected to hit perhaps a couple dozen of them, a conclusion which I find most
remarkable. Lt. Roderick
Mackenzie (search for two-thirds), himself one of those casualties,
gave a much higher estimate.

It is unknown whether or not these papers include the notes from Kennedy wrote HSR. If available, this would possibly show differences in the stories as James Robertson told them as compared to how Kennedy incorporated them in his book.
